Hello Sirs and/or Madams!

I'm hailing you today to seek permission for the use of one "Conference" Gunboat. I am already in possession of the "Osprey" Escort VHF** but sadly, pirates these days seem to pack more of a punch than the poor thing can handle... Would it be permissible for me to take it up a step?

Also the design is pretty sleek, and if you have to end a life, you gotta end it in style. Know what I'm sayin?

** "Osprey" Permission enclosed: Archived Permission Notice

Always a friend to the zoners
